About our wedding paella catering in Park Royal
A wedding paella is food and entertainment at once. Guests wander over to watch while the photos are taken, and the meal arrives hot and generous. We cook canapé tapas, evening paella and table tapas, and we are regularly asked to cater marquee and garden weddings and civil partnerships and vow renewals.
London weddings around Park Royal frequently mean a ceremony at a church or register office, then a reception at a hired venue or a family garden. Paella suits either, given a ventilated cooking spot. In London, parking and loading need planning early. Tapas, canapés, desserts, sangria and staff can all be added, so one booking can cover the whole menu.

What you get with us
- Served hot, straight from the pan
